the first thing that jumps out is your broadcast is wrong - it should be 192.168.0.255.


So you mean the '1' in the 'option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;' line. I've corrected that and restarted dhcpd but the situation is still to same. Oh, and here's my routing table if it helps:

king:/proc/sys/net/ipv4# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
66.26.80.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.248.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0 66.26.80.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0


I shouldn't have to use the 'route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth1' command to this correct (the was in the DHCP mini-howto)? That just seems overkill.

Btw, what's a good starter source that takes things at a slow pace on networking? I want to get this bugger running first but when I have more time I'd love to delve deeper into the subject.

thanks,
